I’m so glad you’re here.

My name is Brandon Hotham, and I have the privilege of serving as President + CEO of the Dempsey Center. I’m also proud to be the captain of the Center Squad—our team made up of staff, volunteers, clients, and community members who all believe deeply in this work.

The Dempsey Challenge is more than just an event—it’s a powerful way for our community to come together in support of people impacted by cancer. Every dollar raised helps the Dempsey Center continue to provide supportive cancer care, including counseling, movement and nutrition support, integrative therapies, and connection—all at no cost to those we serve.

The Center Squad is a place for anyone who wants to be part of that impact.

Whether you’re part of our team, have experienced our services, supported someone with cancer, or simply believe in our mission—you belong here.

Here’s how you can be part of it:

• Join the team: Register and be part of the Center Squad
• Invite others: Encourage friends, family, or colleagues to join you
• Fundraise: Share your page and help spread the word
• Donate: Every dollar truly makes a difference

There’s something really special about showing up together—whether that’s at the event, through fundraising, or by rallying others around this cause.

Thank you for being here, and for being part of the Center Squad! Let’s show up strong, support one another, and make a real impact—together!
